Not certain on this point.
If you're asking "do you have a problem with secret cash arrangements by regulars in your game?" Then yes. It is like husbands and wives in cash games -- if a couple sits down, no problem. We all know they're married. If there's something to adjust to, we adjust to it. Let's say I come into town, sit in the 80, and you have half my action. Is it different if we pretend not to know each other? If everyone knows it? It isn't about unnoticed by me. It is about secretly chopping up people's equity, or the incentive to do so. If you own half my win/loss, give me a scouting report on the lineup, and we're strangers at the table, is that cool to everyone here? Maybe we play 100% legit at all times, so it should be OK?
Maybe I'm wrong and it is 100% totally fine. It just seems like we had two pages of "you'd be an idiot to have a problem with this." There are potential ethical issues that are hard to spot.
